If anyone can truly inspire us with a TED Talk, it's Patton Oswalt.
In this trailer for Conan O'Brien's web series (watch above), Oswalt parodies the formulaic way in which TED speakers love to drive home life-changing ideas.
Oswalt's thoughts aren't quite as groundbreaking as those of actual TED presenters, but his social commentary on Harry Nilsson's song "Coconut" (among other things) is genius.
Take note, TED organizers. We want this to happen for real.
